DXB-DOH. Terminal 2 is fairly mundane compared to Terminals 1 or 3 at DXB but clean and less crowded. Check in lines were long for DOH check-in but walked over to a counter showing another check in city and the agent checked us in in minutes. Flight boarded by bus and was organized. B737-800 clean and comfortable flight attendants cordial and inflight food/shopping not over-priced.

BEY-DXB return excellent value for money. New B737-800. Onboard sales for a reasonable price. In DXB they use T2 which is far from being welcoming. An inflight magazine would be ok on a 3hrs flight.

DXB-DOH return on new 737-800. Short flights of 45 mins and no problems. Very quick through terminal 2 straight on to plane. Return also problem free bussed to plane in Doha which was at the furthest stand possible. Onboard crew friendly and efficient. Arrived back in Terminal two along with Mihin Lanka and Air India flight which meant long Queues at immigration however they moved quick enough and with no checked baggage I was in the taxi about 30 mins after landing!

Recently flew DXB-BEY-DXB. All flights leave from Terminal two in Dubai which is across the airfield from Terminals one and three. There are few amenities in the terminal which is more likened to a Ryanair terminal than anything else. Cabin crew on both flights were friendly and on the out bound flight were extremely observent during safety checks insisting that all window blinds were up etc.Seat pitch quite small for a three hour flight and it was a low cost experience with drinks and snacks being sold on board - far cheaper than anything available on european LLC and they handed out a free cup of water after take off. On the return I asked to be moved from pre assigned seats to emergency exit seats the agent said he couldn't do it at the check in desk but to ask him at the gate. I did and he manually changed the seats for us. Exit seats were fantastic and allowed us to stretch out fully. A pleasant enough experience but would only fly with them if the fare was very good.
